Good news! The original pen drawing of 'Bradford Before the Hole' was sold at the launch exhibition of the new offices and website of Fabric - Forum for the arts in Bradfordin Little Germany - click on the image to see a bigger version. The 'Made in Bradford' exhibition comprised 21 artists and photographers work, inspired by the Bradford district. The new office space is lovely and in a great situation opposite Bradford Cathedral.

I'd already sold 5 pieces of work, including two prints from the Bradford picture, from the Bradford Chamber exhibition (more available of the limited edition print). What with the 'Wedding of the Year' in August, I've had a good summer!

Anyway, many thanks to artist and printmaker June Russelljunejrussell.co.uk, Gideon Seymour of Fabric and Richard Sara-Gray of Bradford Chamber for making all this possible.

If you want to see more work have a look at my websiteI'm now busy with a commission for illustration on a website, so back to that now!

Starting my blog with news of my exhibition in Bradford Chamber of Commerce. I got the 'gig' after a 'Jelly' meeting where I met a Bradford Chamber member who was interested in my large (A2) pen drawing 'Bradford Before the Hole'. Above is the middle section - click on the image to see a bigger version.

Bradford Chamber has started 'Chamber Art' which is a changing exhibition of both art and photography. In my exhibition, alongside the Bradford picture, there is a range of work both old and new, reflecting my interests and concerns. At the moment the exhibition is in Bradford ChamberExchange in Vicar Lane, Little Germany, open weekdays 8 - 5.00. The last day will be the 5th July. The exhibition will then move to the Bradford ChamberBusiness Park in Laisterdyke and will be open from the 8th July, weekdays 9 - 4.30 and will be there till end of August.
